  • Both camps are right!

    Cheap bikes just don't ride nowhere as nicely nor do they last as expensive bikes do.

    BUT! The worst thing about owning an expensive bike is owning an expensive bike.

    It's a thief magnet and source of envy of other riders.

    You really need to find a sweet spot between a quality bike and being able to leave it locked in the city without having pangs of anxiety of it being stolen.

  • I actually won twice.

    The first time was on a radio show and I won two tickets to see the first Ice Age film.

    The second time was recently, I won a youtube giveaway, and I won a painting. The guy was asking so much for shipping that I stopped replying.

  • Oh WOW what a great question!

    In my case there are many games.

    Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy 6,7,8,9; Zelda Link to the past, Stalker shadow of Chernobyl.

    Some games truly are an experience to play. But more than anything else I want the feeling of childish carelessness I had while playing these games.

  • Yes, dosens of times.

    I grew up in eastern europe and things work differently there.

    Oftentimes the cops would fish for bribes. Cops would pick you up on the street/stop you in traffic and search you/your car/whatever in hopes of finding something to hook onto and escalate the situation further and put you in a legally difficult situation.

    Then they would generously offer that they can make it all go away if somebody from your family comes and brings X amount of money.

    This didn't happen just to me, in most countries of the former eastern block that's just a fact of life.

  • You understand my current state of mind.

    I just stopped believing in existence of deities and the existence of inherent meaning of life (not to mistake it with value of life).

    The world is just a mess beyond our comprehension and we tend to attribute random events beyond our comprehension to the grand plan of things.

    I do think that life is much more beautiful with the acceptance of atheism, mortality (no afterlife), personal and sexual freedom. I tend to just enjoy the moment and the life I have while I still have it knowing that this is it, this isn't a preparation for what comes next. This is it.

    I'm still against mocking religion because I find it to be in poor taste, in the same vein like mocking someones gender, nationality, sexual orientation.
